I have a template which initially had one single loop and it was using query_posts, I added 2 more loops using the same method, However after reading allot about these it was concluded that I shall stop using it and everyone is against using it.

The problem is that the third loop doesnt show the right posts, as if it doesnt recognize the post meta, however if i use query_posts then it works!

views v_sortby, v_orderby

Any help is appreciated, I am quite new to this.

Update
According to similar question asked on this site. below is another way of achieving it using query_posts with meta keys. I guess there is a better way of rewriting the code to use meta keys + wp_query or get_posts someone care to? I am very new to this, looks too chunky? :S
